Restkit response in text / xml

Question

I have a WS that returns a plist.
I am using Restkit and I would like to display the answer.

So first, I initialize my ObjectManager as follows:

sharedInstance.manager = [RKObjectManager managerWithBaseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:ROOT_URL]]; 

I accept text / xml:

 [[RKObjectManager sharedManager] setAcceptHeaderWithMIMEType:RKMIMETypeTextXML]; 

And I run my query:

 NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[RKObjectManager sharedManager] requestWithObject:nil method:RKRequestMethodPOST path:@"/foo/foo" parameters:nil]; RKManagedObjectRequestOperation *operation = [[RKObjectManager sharedManager] managedObjectRequestOperationWithRequest:request managedObjectContext:[BddManager sharedInstance].manager.managedObjectStore.mainQueueManagedObjectContext success:^(RKObjectRequestOperation *operation, RKMappingResult *result) { NSLog(@"Loading mapping result: %d", result.count); } failure:^(RKObjectRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) { NSLog(@"Fail!"); }]; [operation start]; 

Finally, I get this error:

 NSLocalizedDescription=Expected content type {( "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", "application/json" )}, got text/xml, 

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

RestKit 0.20.0rc1 does not contain an XML serializer in the main repository, but you can find it here: RKXMLReaderSerialization .

Install via cocoapods: (or add source files to the project)

 pod 'RKXMLReaderSerialization', :git => 'https://github.com/RestKit/RKXMLReaderSerialization.git', :branch => 'master' 

Import the header in which you initialize RestKit.

 #import "RKXMLReaderSerialization.h" 

Finally, register the serialization class with RestKit. Paste this after initializing the object manager and before setting the accept header.

 sharedInstance.manager = [RKObjectManager managerWithBaseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:ROOT_URL]]; [RKMIMETypeSerialization registerClass:[RKXMLReaderSerialization class] forMIMEType:@"application/xml"]; [[RKObjectManager sharedManager] setAcceptHeaderWithMIMEType:RKMIMETypeTextXML];

Take a look at this link on the official RestKit gihub page. It is designed for 1.0

1) You will need to tell RKObjectManager how to process the data that is serialized after the download process.

 [objectManager setRequestSerializationMIMEType:RKMIMETypeTextXML]; 

Edit:

I just saw that you are talking about a request, but using the method of sending an object to WS through POST.

To retrieve objects from the server, use the following method, which is described in the RestKit application examples.

 [[RKObjectManager sharedManager] getObjectsAtPath:@"yourPath" parameters:nil success:^(RKObjectRequestOperation *operation, RKMappingResult *mappingResult) { // Success } failure:^(RKObjectRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) { // Error RKLogError(@"Load failed with error: %@", error); }];
